Aluminum arrows for pistol crossbows, 16 cm

Golden Aluminum Pistol Crossbow Hunting Bolts with Broadheads

Historical Context of Crossbow Ammunition

Crossbow shooting has deep historical roots in Europe, dating back to antiquity and the early Middle Ages. While medieval war crossbows utilised heavy, hand-forged iron bolts to pierce chainmail and plate armour, modern pistol crossbows rely on innovative lightweight materials and high projectile velocities. This type of bolt, featuring a broadhead, is conceptually based on traditional wide-bladed hunting points. Historically, these were designed to cause a massive cutting wound and significant bleeding in game animals. Today, these modern, lightweight replicas made of aluminium and plastic are used primarily for sports, recreation, and target practice.

Safety Warnings and Proper Usage

These 16 cm (6.3 inches) long bolts are primarily designed for modern pistol crossbows with a corresponding draw length. We must strongly warn you that hunting live animals with a bow or crossbow is strictly illegal in many European countries! Therefore, use these bolts with their razor-sharp blades exclusively for sports target shooting in a safe, controlled, and designated environment. Shoot only into special archery targets designed for powerful crossbows that can safely stop the flying bolt without damaging the plastic vanes or bending the aluminium shaft. Never shoot into trees, wooden boards, or solid objects – the aluminium shaft could buckle upon a hard impact, and the broadhead could be completely destroyed. Likewise, never aim these bolts at people or animals under any circumstances.
